i think you are good here most of the time coz i can't see him checking 3 times with a set. however, what if the river wasn't an 8? what if it's another low card which does not pair the board?
do you check it down now? so say you don't and you get check raised. what now? can you lay it down?
what i'm trying to say here is that by not betting flop or turn, you are risking more than what you stand to earn...
surely, surely you have got to bet at least one of flop and turn. in fact, with your line of thoughts in wanting to get a hero call on the river, would it not be better to bet flop, check turn and call river? or bet again and try to get 2 streets of value if he checks river?
so many questions which i hope are actually answers to what i think is a better line to take...
